sorry. that didnt help.

How would VF03 know what output type to select based on the type of invoice.

Hi,

Its not possible. the output type has a form assigned to it and the processing is done within the form.

The document type also has a document category and it seems the processing is done based on the document category within these forms. So that even if you create your own document types, they are assigned to a standard document category.

So I would say its not possible to maintain an output type for a specific document type.

Hi,

With configured output determination. transaction SPRO

Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output Determination -> Maintain Output Determination for Billing Documents.

Using the condition technique the Invoice program will determine the relevant output type based on this configuration.

Hi,

It's completely possible.....

Create an different output type per layout...

Use output determination using the invoice type to select the relevant output type...Function module MESSAGING will be called from the Invoice program to determine which output types meet the conditions configured. Those output types will then be determined...
